| | International law - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | International law establishes the framework and the criteria for identifying states as the principal actors in the international legal system. | | | As the existence of a state presupposes control and jurisdiction over territory, international law deals with the acquisition of territory, state immunity and the legal responsibility of states in their conduct with each other. | | | The latter regulates the relations between persons or entities in different states and is in fact not international law at all (a better term which has been suggested for private international law is "conflict of laws"). |

| | It is entitled, 'A Digest of the International Law of the United States,' and it consists of documents relating to that subject issued by Presidents and Secretaries of State, of the decisions of Federal Courts, and of the opinions of Attorneys-General. | | | Therefore the law of contraband of war and the law of blockade are not touched by the reform under the Declaration of Paris, except so far as a principle long contended for is applied to blockades. | | | Law implies a lawgiver, and a tribunal capable of enforcing it and coercing its transgressors. |

| | International Law is rooted in acceptance by the nation states which constitute the system. | | | International Law, which is in most other countries referred to as Public International Law, concerns itself only with questions of rights between several nations or nations and the citizens or subjects of other nations. | | | A State of the United States is not a "state" under international law, since the Constitution does not vest it with a capacity to conduct foreign relations. |
